I'm okay with that. I also want to suggest me taking Luke Harper from his roster and in return giving him Bo Dallas. All in favor?

Yeah, that's seven picks  total that he's missed, it's obvious he's gotten far too busy in for this. Real stuff takes it's toll.


If KITN, or anyone, wants to take over his roster, that's fine with me. Unless RT shows up by the time his next pick comes around and states he still wants to keep in.

Coming soon exclusively for the PW Fan Fiction draft.... 

Best Of The Best, an all new original promotion set in an alternate universe where time does not exist. BOTB will bring together 20 of the most uniquely skilled personalities with diverse backgrounds across the entire spectrum of styles of professional wrestling from all over the world. Each of the 20 combatants in BOTB were carefully selected by a prestigious Eternal Championship council, a collection of supreme beings that exist in the spiritual realm. The Eternal Championship council selected the combatants and stopped their time in order to bring the competitor in their prime form to compete in the world stage in the Best Of The Best ring in a dimension that exists only in the imagination of the fans who will never forget. The Eternal Championship council's first decision for the Best Of The Best series was a thoroughbred out of the Hart Family Dungeon, Canada's Pride... Bret "The Hitman" Hart... The Best There Is... The Best There Was... The Best There Ever Will Be... 

The Eternal Championship council froze Bret Hart's time on the night of July 11th 1994 just before he walked out for a match against the 123 Kid on WWF Raw. The council brought Bret from that night, from that moment he was walking out for that match to compete in the Best Of The Best series. Bret Hart on July 11th 1994 is the reigning undisputed WWF World Champion and at that point was the only man in WWF history with 2 WWF World Tag Team Championship reigns, 2 WWF Intercontinental Championship reigns, and 2 WWF World Championship titles. Bret won the title for his second time by defeating the dominant Yokozuna at Wrestlemania X. The version of Bret that was brought to the Best Of The Best competition was a valiant fighting World Champion that was at the top of his game. Bret "The Hitman" Hart '94 will be the main attraction in the inaugural BOTB event live in Madison Square Garden in New York City NY live in the first round of the PW Fan Fic Draft, it will be Best Of The Best I: The Beginning... 

 

Yeah sorry guys. Shit's been crazy lately. Someone can take over from here, sorry for holding you all up.

It's all good baby, hope everything is ok

Nope.

I'm the worst possible person for RT's roster. I have no idea who his 4th and 7th pick is, literally have never heard of either. Minus RVD and Daniel Bryan, I've seen less than 5 matches combined of everybody else. 

Well, shit. Times like this make me wish WMS hadn't left the forum in an act of cowardism.

I dig RT's roster. It's in good alignment with my tastes. I wouldn't mind making the rest of RT's picks. The problem is, I don't want to spend the time making proper fan-ficcy cards. I've lost interest in that altogether. Nor do I wish to do RT/this draft a disservice by half-assing a card with no backstory or fan-fic flavour. So yeah, I can do the drafting, but not too keen on the rest.

RT, if I finish drafting your roster, would you be good to write the cards by the time the draft is over, or would you still be too busy?

I'm all for Emperor doing it or KITN if Emp doesn't want to do it(I think it would be best if somebody that wasn't already in the draft took it over though). Or maybe RT can just freeze his draft and pick his guys in the end and come back to this thing when we start the tournament, or maybe leave a list of picks that he wants with somebody to make for him until he can come back. Just some ideas. Emperor I imagine you would be doing pretty good even without going all out with extras for a card, I'd be willing to barter for Rob Van Dam though if we can make trades, I'll give you my 2nd round pick and 5th round pick in the 2018 fan fic draft and I'll even throw in a loaf of raisin bread(you pay shipping though).

Coming soon exclusively for the PW Fan Fiction draft....

Deep within the heart of the Cosmos there burns a fire, the fire from which the eternal spirit of human competition was first ignited. The fire burned strong as it drove the human race to conquer it's fears and overcome the challenges that held the species back and threatened to wipe it out in ancient times. Through it all, humanity persevered and fought through 5 extinction level events that wiped history clean and forced the race to start over from nothing. Somewhere along the way the fire was nearly put out and the spirit of competition and Pride was knocked out of balance. In order to save the human race and reignite the Pride the spirits of the multiverse reunited to create an alternate dimension in a timeless universe, BEST OF THE BEST....

An Eternal Championship Council of the spiritual realm was responsible for the selection of 20 unique spirited warriors, each taken from a specific moment in time and brought to the Best Of The Best realm, a realm of the imagination where they will stay to live, compete, and co-exist with each other for 1 full year. Through the course of the year Best Of The Best will broadcast a weekly 90 minute episodic Wrestling series aired at The Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City. Each week's episode of BOTB will build up to four separate Best Of The Best SUPER-SHOWS....

Best Of The Best I: The Beginning(Madison Square Garden/New York, NY)

Best Of The Best II: The Revenge(Tokyo Dome/Tokyo, JP)

Best Of The Best III: Redemption City Showdown(Astrodome/Houston, TX)

Best Of The Best IV: The Final Chapter(Royal Albert Hall/London, UK)

Each warrior was chosen for the Best Of The Best series by the Eternal Championship council not only for their skills inside the professional wrestling ring but for their unique spirits and the fires that burned inside their hearts. These spirits will be thrown together in the Best Of The Best series to co-exist in an ongoing drama of the human spirit, the perpetual battle of good vs evil, and the burning fire to be the true Best Of The Best. The first competitor chosen by the Eternal Championship Council was Bret "The Hitman" Hart, taken from a moment frozen in time from July 11th 1994. The second warrior chosen comes from The Land Of The Rising Sun....

Shinsuke Nakamura was chosen and taken from from a moment frozen in time just prior to his match against Kota Ibushi on the evening of January 4th 2015 at the New Japan Pro Wrestling Wrestle Kingdom 9 event at The Tokyo Dome. In this moment, Nakamura is the best in the world, reigning IWGP Intercontinental Champion and a former 3 time IWGP World Heavyweight Champion. Nakamura's spirit burns and his heart is undeniable as his toughness. Along with Nakamura the Eternal Championship Council chose Brian Pillman for the Best Of The Best series...

Pillman was taken from a moment frozen in time on the night of February 17th 1996, just before he was set to walk out and make his ECW debut at the Cyberslam '96 event, which took place just shortly after he left WCW in controversial fashion and just a short period of time before he was disabled in a horrible auto accident that all but ended his glory days as an in-ring competitor. Pillman in this moment was still in his physical prime while at the same time growing into one of the most wildly charismatic personalities in his Loose Cannon persona, an unpredictable burning spirit that raged on for far too short of a period of time. The Eternal Championship Council also chose a former Horseman stablemate of Pillman's when Chris Benoit was selected for the Best Of The Best Series...

Chris Benoit was taken from a moment frozen in time on the night of January 24th 1998 just as he was set to take on Raven on WCW's Souled Out '98 pay per view event. In this moment Benoit was one of the most determined and honorable competitors inside the ring, with technical skills and intelligent ring craftsmanship that more than made up for his lack of size or charisma. Benoit's charisma was in his technique on the mats and his determination even when he was physically outmatched. Another burning spirit that was chosen by the Eternal Championship Council for the Best Of The Best series was an elite hybrid style Extreme warrior in his prime, The Human Suplex Machine... Taz.... 

Taz was taken from a moment frozen in time on the night of July 18th 1999 as he was set to defend his ECW World Heavyweight Championship against Yoshihiro Tajiri on the ECW Heatwave pay per view. Taz in this moment was the single most dominant force in ECW's wild and violent history. Taz was one of only 2 men to have held every title in ECW and was an unbeatable force that was only pinned twice in a span of 4 years from 1995 to 1999. Taz's opponent Tajiri was his final meaningful challenger after clearing out the entire ECW roster over that span(he would go on to mop the floor with Tajiri at Heatwave). Taz's fire and pride burns with ferocity rarely seen in a competitor. Taz's in-ring style is a hybrid of Extreme Wrestling as well as Judo and shoot fighting along with one of the most stifling arsenal of suplexes ever seen.

I was just taking the piss, I'm pretty sure it's against the rules to draft two rosters at once.

I drafted two rosters the last draft we did, when I took over for KJ.


Anyone who wants to take it, is more than welcome too.

So, assuming I do take over RT, how do the picks work? Do I make all the missed picks up at the end?

Sadly, yes, you'll have to make up for my laziness at the end.

And to answer your question, no, I probably won't have time to help you with cards. When the time comes PM me anyway, as the draft won't be over for a bit longer, and I might be more settled, but I can't promise anything right now.

Not laziness...inadequacy? That might work.

Anyway..between moving back to Saskatchewan and starting a new job, my life got flipped turned upside down /freshprince PW has taken a back seat these past couple weeks while I get my life back in order and spend as much time as possible with my family. Being away from them for the past almost-two-months has been dreadful. I don't know how military/etc do that. It's nuts.

Sorry again for holding up the draft. I hate being that guy.

Fuck it, I'll fookin' do it.

Go for it, KITN.

I'm happy to step in so that no current participant has to manage two rosters.

I think I even stepped in for RT once before in a draft. We got that bond! :lol:

My vote goes to somebody who is not already in the draft.

Yeah, PI can have it.

Alright, decreed. I'm taking over RT's roster. Time to make chicken shit out of chicken shit.

Hey 🤯, I'll trade you Bo Dallas for Luke Harper. Deal?

It's a scam, he's been using Bo as a crack mule and he'll pin it on you.

Don't bolieve him!

Once this is all said and done, I'll probably for sure be open to trades to make something a little more user-friendly outta this roster.

OK, so I got myself all caught up to speed on the draft, namely who's been drafted so far and specifically who's been drafted to RT's roster. Now that I'm better acquainted, I'll put this out there re: trades...

No idea who Pete Dunne or Tetsuya Naito are, so open to any trades for them.

Generally dislike Kevin Owens, and not uber familiar with Tanahashi, so they're on the table for trades as well.

Kid, if you want Luke Harper, I'm down for either Sabu or Low Ki in exchange. Your call.

If I get Luke, I don't need Bo. I'm willing to trade Low Ki and Bo for Luke Harper and one of your open spots if you're cool with that.

I don't want to be stuck with Bo!

Or a roster that's one pick short.

:lol:

Alternatively, I'm willing to trade you Pete Dunne for Erick Rowan.

:meh:

(Only thing I miss about old PW is our smileys)

The lol smiley was working for a while. Bug HR about it.

I hope PI wins with the shit roster I handed him.

I'd be a willing trade partner as well. I know I might have some guys that entice you. PM me if you are interested.
